Returning: The Amazing Race

Phil Keoghan and his team of aggressive racers take to their next race from 7:30pm Thursday July 23rd.

The fourteenth season of The Amazing Race will include five teams of family members, four couples who are married or dating, and two teams of friends.

In addition to their first-ever deaf contestant (23yo college graduate Luke Adams), the cast also includes flight attendants, stuntmen, cheerleaders and a gay father/activist and his screenwriter son, who wrote School of Rock and Year of the Dog.

And it even included a scene with Phil in his underwear. Anything for that Emmy nomination, eh?

Not the first deaf competitor. A competitor on the Amazing Race Asia was the first deaf competitor in The Amazing Race franchise. Interestingly, though, there have been complaints from the deaf participant that he wasn’t allowed to express that he also happens to be gay, because producers already had a ‘gay’ team. Interesting little snippit in passing.
